What next for AWI?

Agriculture Minister David Littleproud has called on Australian Wool Innovations to implement all 82 recommendations set down by the Ernst & Young review.

“The review provides a roadmap to modernise AWI and I ask and expect AWI will take a genuine leadership role in delivering the recommendations,” he said.

Key recommendations from the 500 page report include improved strategic planning, communication with stakeholders and stakeholder engagement, a move to a skills-based board, improved transparency of proxy voting and limiting board members to 10-year tenure.
